Pet Health Q & A

Pet Health Q & A

Hip Dysplacia and Arthro-Ionx

I have a 14 year old white lab who has become very weak and thin in the back end due to hip dysplacia. I ordered the Arthro-Ions, the H20-Ionx, the Omega 3/6/9, and the Probiotics in an effort to support his whole system. How effective does the arthro-Ionx seem to be with the hip issues, since it is not technically arthritis?

canine diabetes

hi,my dog a 10 yr old blind caren terrier that we adopted in september 2014 after her owner passed away was just diagnosed with diabetes.she also suffers from cushens disease that we are not treating her for at this time.we started giving her insulin shots 2 times a day 4ml. last week she was tested at our vet and her levels are very high the 400 range.we are having a very hard time giving her the insulin shot she is starting to bite and not tolerating the shot at all.we have tried treats before and after but now its becoming impossible.is there a pill or an oral medication or some alternative that we can use.we have to get her diabetes levels down before we can consider having catarac surgery.and yes we have tried to muzzle her and now we are wearing gloves and holding her head before giving her the shot to prevent biting but it is still very hard.thank you.rich.r.

American Hairless Terrier with skin allergy

My AHT has skin allergy with grass. My Vet tried different medicine but the issue comes back right after the treatment was done. Could you please give me some advices about this issue? Best Regards, Henry

Skin issues

We have a French bulldog that is 6 years old and over the last 18 months plus he has had major skin issues. He is currently on on allergy meds plus Benadryl twice daily (for 4 months). He is not any better if not worse.

Is my Labrador Retriever a candidate for Derma-IonX?

Hello Drs,! I have a 4 year old lab who is being treated for dermodec with ivomec.He had some pattern scratching behind his shoulders that I was told could indicate a thyroid issue, He is almost through with he Ivomec treatment, and he looks better, but he still seems itchy and has terrible dandruff. He is otherwise in great health. On a grain free diet, with a supplement of cooked chicken once daily. Would he benefit from Derma-IonX?

H2O-IonX

My cat is a male 29 lb long hair siamese. He is 11 yrs old. He was on a RX human stool softner for a six months from my vet for hard stools and infrequent stools and gas. I was not satisfied with the results nor the sticky substance I had to administer. I chose your product and started in February of this year. Great results until just the last couple weeks I noticed not as many stools and smaller pieces. i started giving him the over the counter stool softner gel pills once a day for the last five days which has helped. i give him a tsp in the morning and at night in his food of the H2O-IonX. Did his metabolism get use to it and I need to increase the dosage?? Another benefit he does get form the H2O-IonX is no gas I noticed. My other cat is on the Anxietrex and is doing better. Another question while I have this opportunity is the Arthro-IonX for his arthritis. Can that be added at the same time with the H2O-IonX or separate times. I am considering to try that one also. My vet is documenting this for future pet owners he sees. He was thrilled to know your products are working for our cats. Thank You

Allergy and Sinus Relief

March 2014 I adopted Lilly from NOVA's Lost Dog and Cat Rescue. Lilly was rescued from a puppy mill breeding Dioxin-Pit Bulls. The combination is terrible. Lilly is continuously stressed from caring a Pit Bull inside a Dioxin body. I found Arthro-IonX to help Lilly with joint pain and mobility. I'm also going to try H2O-IonX. For a few months now, Lilly has refused to consistently eat any of the natural brand dog foods I've tried. What I'm still searching for are ways to help with Allergies and Sinus Congestion. I witness Lilly suffering from the exact symptoms as me. She not only cries out on car rides, but at home as well from the hardened mucus lodge and movement. What do you recommend? Your expertise is greatly appreciated.

Cracking joints and Cronic inflammatory bowel disease

Hi Dr Char, I have a black(Jesse) and chocolate(Mickey) labs, both 10 years old. Mickey is the one with bowel problems and it has been a challenge to have him stable over the years. They are on raw diet, filtered water, probiotics, omegas and organic supplements (BioVet line). I would like to try Arthro-IonX for Jesse and H2O-IonX for Mickey and keep them on it. My question is: can I give both products to both dogs? If yes, do I start them at the same time and can they stay on it indefinitely? Jesse does not want to drink much and had in the past a kidney stone, and Mickey has a swollen front paws, and both are getting tired faster.....Thank you
